This function is actually to consume a block from the AGFL (as opposed
to refill it).

Ah, this was just an initialization quirk. I originally had an assert
here and based the logic on the assumption that pagf_btreeblks >=
agf_rmap_blocks, but alas:
# mkfs.xfs -f -mrmapbt <dev>
...
# xfs_db -c "agf 0" -c "p rmapblocks" -c "p btreeblks" <dev>
rmapblocks = 1
btreeblks = 0
